More specifically, an aerosol generation device comprises: a casing defining an opening for insertion of an aerosol generation carrier; a heating chamber configured to partially contain the aerosol generation carrier such that at least a portion of the aerosol generation carrier extends outside the heating chamber; and an optical detection unit comprising an image detector arranged for optically detecting a code provided on a section of a surface of the portion of the aerosol generation carrier extending outside the heating chamber. The heating chamber is configured to heat a portion of the aerosol generation carrier inserted in the heating chamber.
